Angelic Starlet adds visible warmth and energy — works well in north-facing rooms that need a lift and in spaces where cheerful is the goal. At LRV 81 it reflects plenty of light, which makes it well-suited for north-facing rooms and smaller spaces that benefit from extra brightness. Skip it in north-facing rooms with cool light, where yellows can read acidic or greenish rather than cheerful.

Angelic Starlet Technical Profile
What color is Dunn-Edwards Angelic Starlet (DET645)? It's a light warm yellow — hex #EBE9D8, LRV 81. The closest cross-brand equivalent to Angelic Starlet is Benjamin Moore Seashell — a near-identical match on the wall, with Sherwin-Williams Barely Pear and Valspar Pontoon White also close. With a Light Reflectance Value of 81, Angelic Starlet reflects a generous amount of light, making it well-suited for north-facing rooms or smaller spaces that benefit from extra brightness. Pair it with crisp whites like Pure White for trim, oak or maple woods, and brass hardware. Navy or deep teal accents balance the brightness without competing for attention. At mid saturation, this color sits at a flexible mid-point — bold enough to anchor a room without dominating, and pairs cleanly with both crisp and creamy whites. Under 2700K warm bulbs Angelic Starlet reads more golden or buttery. Under 4000K daylight bulbs it stays truer to the chip, though saturated yellows can edge toward green in mixed light. At mid saturation the lighting shift is moderate but real — sample under both warm-bulb evening light and cool-daylight morning light before committing.
